George

You've got a quiet kind of patience, a steady kind of grace

A hard-working provider who puts a smile upon my face

When the world gets a little heavy, you're the one who stands your ground

In the quiet moments with you, George, my safest place is found

You're a family man, protective, with a heart so deep and wide

And every day I wake up thankful just to be right by your side

You made me the happiest woman, you made me the happiest wife

I honor the man that you are, the center of my life

Through every season we weather, through everything we do

I want you to know you're appreciated, and I only love you

I think about those early mornings, the coffee in the dark

You made sure I got to campus, you were the fire to my spark

Through all the years of schooling, when I thought I'd finally break

You were right there with a gentle word, for our whole future's sake

You never let me give up, you encouraged me to the end

My faithful, committed husband, my very best friend

You made me the happiest woman, you made me the happiest wife

I honor the man that you are, the center of my life

Through every season we weather, through everything we do

I want you to know you're appreciated, and I only love you

Then came the day I walked the stage, they finally called my name

I held that degree in my hand, but you're the reason that I came

I looked out in the crowded room and I saw your beaming face

The pride you showed in me that day, no words could ever trace

Now we're sitting here together, just soaking in the years

Through the late-night study sessions, the triumphs and the cheers

I couldn't have done it without you, my devoted, loving man

I'm holding onto you, George, as tightly as I can

'Cause you made me the happiest woman, you made me the happiest wife

I honor the man that you are, the center of my life

Through every season we weather, through everything we do

I want you to know you're appreciated, and I only love you

Yeah, I want you to know you're appreciated, and I only love you
